Expanded metal is ideal as a carrier material for filter media

The flow rate and sizing of the filtered material can be precisely influenced by the many variations of the high and free cross-section, while maintaining the stability of the filter body. We develop the mesh dimensions and size of our filter elements together with our customers. Expanded metal can be custom made to meet your specific filtration and performance requirements, with the advantage of cost savings over other mesh types. In cooperation with our customers, we have developed numerous prototypes and filtration applications that help our customers to increase efficiency and minimise production costs.

Filtafoil

Filtafoil is an expanded metal made of aluminium foil that serves as a filter medium in filters. It can be shaped and compressed. Compared to wire products such as knitted wire mesh, it has the advantage that no loose wire ends can come loose and so-called trickle effects do not occur during cleaning.
